Doesn't matter but....

I'm seeing a Biden adds on YouTube, I watch at 1.5 to 2x speed. Biden add comes on and it switches to normal speed. That is bad. Really makes him seem old, it was at about the third or fourth time I noticed. Might be specific to me, but why is that all YouTube adds or just really noticeable with Biden?

When you have a specific bias you'll tend to see negativity whenever you have the opportunity. Also, I generally never correct grammar\spelling, but it's ads*.

It's pretty obvious you lean right, you already have the idea that Biden is slow, feeble, and unintelligent, and you're simply reading that bias into the advertisement.

I mean, he's 80. So yeah, he's not quick by any means, but I don't need a fast talking POTUS. I'd take someone with a proven history over that.

I think I get it. Biden is slow, feeble, and unintelligent, but you don't see it because you lean left.

Is that how it works?

I think a more accurate assessment of "how it works" is that anyone who has ever supported or defended an obvious conman and now 34-time convicted felon probably doesn't have the best grasp on "how it works". Everyone else at least gets the benefit of the doubt.

You were close! So, so close...but no. If that were the case then he wouldn't be reading his bias into it that would be the reality. So even with this terrible attempt at humor you didn't get it right.

That being said, I don't watch ads. You know why? I'm smart enough, talented enough and savvy enough to use an ad blocker. I also don't watch Biden or the news in general. I read my information. dirty nailed it though, he sounds old as hell because he is! I have no doubts that there are people that don't have the ability to decipher the difference between the two so they view being old as being unintelligent.

I don't disagree, I think thats all true, still makes it bad for Biden. I really think its fairly wierd that youtube switches to regular speed when I'm watching at 1.5+. It really plays into his weekness. Almost to the extent that if I were a lefty, I'd think google had it out for him.

Also, I don't think I've seen a single Trump add, also weird.

I imagine the speed changes, because the ad buy is probably length of time.

No. The reason he walks very slowly is because it's painful:

Biden has “significant spinal arthritis” and the impact of a broken foot and neuropathy in his feet that changed how he walks, Dr. O’Connor noted. “The President’s gait remains stiff, but has not worsened since last year.”

My father-in-law had neuropathy in his feet and walking felt like burning knives were jabbing the bottom. He used a wheelchair anytime he had to walk very far because of it. Let's see you walk like a spry youngster with that kind of pain.

Biden is old, but only 4 years older than Trump. Dozey Don fell asleep during his trial several times, has to take a golf cart while playing...er... cheating at golf and rode in one for 700 ft while other world leaders walked in Sicily eight years ago.. But Trump is soooooo intelligent, isn't he? So intelligent that he had to file for bankruptcy because he overbuilt casinos in Atlantic City against advice. So intelligent that his stupid remarks have become classics. Remember 18th century soldiers taking over the airports? Windmills cause cancer? China invented global warming? McCain wasn't war hero because he got captured? How about just the other day claiming he NEVER said "Lock her up"? Yeah, Biden may be old, he may be slow, but he's a freaking genius next to Donald J. Felon.

At least we should be able to agree that Biden is old and slow and sounds, from time to time, rather feeble.

Denying it looks ridiculous. The point is that he is still better than Trump. Anyone should be more than willing to vote for a slow, doddering old guy who no one would really be that surprised if he died in his sleep sometime in the next four years, over someone who has clearly made attempts to overturn a democratic election in his own country.

That's a reflection of how bad Turmp is.

Agreed. But the claim he's 'unintelligent' is the height of irony coming from anyone who supports Trump.

What we should agree on is that both candidates are old and sometimes appear feeble. People who frame this issue exclusively around Biden just look like dupes easily taken in by obvious right wing propaganda or the purveyors of it.

I actually don’t agree with that. Biden is clearly more physically fit and I think displays considerably more mental acuity. Trump can’t even do a softball interview on Fox & Friends without the benefit of it being pre-recorded and edited. Biden holds his own giving live SOTU addresses in front a hostile MAGA crowd openly heckling him.

Agreed, however Trump is by far more feeble-minded.

If the man couldn't rant and rave like a lunatic, he'd be at a loss for words.

Is his claiming that he never said "Lock her up" just another one of his pathological lies or does he really think he never said that?
 
There will be no debates between Trump and Biden. Trump will back out, possibly at the last minute, but he'll back out claiming they're rigged and totally unfair, and will provide no evidence to back it up beyond his claim whatsoever. His followers will accept this and repeat it, repeatedly.
 
For whatever its worth....

If you compare Trump today to trump in 1990, he has clearly declined, but IMHO, its been slower than Biden. Biden compared to 2020 or 2016 Biden is a noticeable difference.

The other thing is, that Trump being old and senile is really low on the list of reasons why I won't vote for him where as, Biden being old and Senile is much higher on the list of reason I don't want to vote for him but will anyway. I don't care that Trump his too old to be the president becuase he's too much of everything else to be the president.
